Re: MTUs - Was: Strange public traceroutes return private RFC1918 addresses

So there we are. Want to bet on whether 40 GigE will still have the 1522 byte limit? Given the growing number of folks who will only buy xGigE equipment that supports 9000 byte MTUs I'd say the chances are very good that 40GigE will no longer have a 1522 byte limit. --Michael Dillon

Ok, I know that this is getting away from the original thread, but I've always wondered this... Why is the MTU on Ethernet 1500 bytes? I have looked through various docs (eg IEEE Std 802.x) and can find where maxUntaggedFrameSize is listed as 1518 octets, but there is no mention of why this
